auto-matonophobia:

now more than ever i want to see you gringxs be the allies you claim to be for latines. put your body where your words are, we are tired of hearing only thoughts and prayers, and justifications. if you’re a gringx (that means non-latine white person for those of you who are years behind in history), i want to see you reblog posts on how to help brazilians. i want to see you talk about how poverty, homophobia and transphobia are rising in argentina. i want you loud about the situation in venezuela, the caribbean, and all of latin america in general, and not just helping those of us who are white.

we’re tired of you demanding us to control our emotions, calling us “illegals” when we’re in “your” countries and pretending you stand with us when you talk with us on the internet while ignoring the fact that the situation in latin america is mostly your fault.

your individualism is killing people, and you don’t care. you justify your ignorance with the fact that your news system does not cover events in marginalized regions, yet ignore us when we reach out on the internet. now we’re loud and we want you to listen to our voices.

please reblog this with no commentary if you’re not latine. and, for once, pull your head out of your goddamn ass.

The brazilian dictatorship and many others in Latin American were financed and encouraged by the US just because they needed to profit from our misery, financially control the countries and impose capitalism on all of us. Hundreds of thousand of people disappeared, were tortured, murdered, raped, exiled and silenced, even children. And now, here in Brazil, 50 years after the end of one of the worst parts of our history, and, once again, mirroring and being stimulated by the US elections and the anti-communism that settled over the world (iniciated by them), we will suffer all over again. 

Our blood is also on your hands.
